martin luther king jr. one of the most eloquent voices. in his letter from the birmingham jail in 1963 when different white faith leaders are asking him to stop the protests in birmingham, he says the young people in birmingham being arrested and incarcerated are going to one day be lionized by the nation as heroes for bringing us back to what dr. king calls great wells of democracy that were dug deep i the founding fathers. the whole entire black freedom struggle is an effort to expand american democracy so it is not enough tos broad include black people. even this idea of black lives matter, i think it is an extraordinarily eloquent phrase, but it is a testament to the fact that throughout american history, black lives have not mattered. it has been quite the reverse. there is always this push to try to get those lives to matter in law and policy, but also in our culture. i think that is what is so important. we need new policies. institutions.new we have to change hearts and minds. have a culture that wi

martin luther king jr., it should say, organized the boycott. the masses followed king. the masses walked, which they did. boycott ended segregated buses and that the boycott was short. i want to tick through those and speak to those. the first one being this idea that parks was the first, that she was the first woman, black woman, to resist reg grated public transportation. that's not even true. i mean, there are examples from the previous century, one of them being ida b. wells who protested on the railroad and won. she sued and won. sojourner truth protested on d.c. street cars. and homer plessy's black man. that's where plessy versus ferguson, separate what equal comes in. we have examples of papers boycotting seg bratted public transportation before and in other locations. birmingham, alabama we have two examples. one here. pauly corp. in 1943. she was a teenager. a bus driver treated her poorly. she spit on him. she cursed him. and then she spent 30 days in jail. as a teenager. there is an incident of another woman who is nameless in the record who got into a shovi

the 3rd son of martin luther king jr who has spent his life advocating for human rights here in the united states and all around the world mr king thank you so much for joining us today and i would just love to start with your personal reflections on this moment. and and how you think we might get through what i know is that this is an incredible nation and yet we continue to particularly in law enforcement we continue to do harm to black people my father until my god his heir over 52 years ago he was marching with sanitation workers in memphis tennessee and was killed those out of taishan workers have silence those signs said i am a man. and were saying treat me with dignity and respect and as the human being that i am 52 years later. all over of the streets of america. blacks and whites and others are saying black lives matter we're still saying to the nation treat us with dignity and respect and like the human beings that we are and tragically are not getting any relief yet now up there we may have turned a corner with the tragic killing of george clooney and what i mean by t

martin luther king jr. some people admire martin luther king jr. eople hate martin luther king jr. i don't believe there is a state legislator the speaker of the house. he was actually a racist. we became great friends. he let the martin luther king jr. holiday bill out of committee after many of his colleagues had balled the bill up and spit tobacco on it. i was, like, oh, mr. murphy. i was crying. i was the age of some of his daughters. if you will stop crying, we will let the bill out of committee. he saw a human being. he let the bill out of the committee. >> neil: think about it. it was amazing. think about your uncle martin luther king as your own dad at the time, i live in such a vibrant forces in georgia in particular. a vibrant confederate center, stone mountain, honoring confederate generals and leaders. jefferson davis -- how did your uncle feel about that? your dad at the time, i guess had far bigger fish to fry. what do you think they would think of this movement now? >> they actually preached the bible along with their dad. they learne

what biden said that the floyd killing has a bigger global impact than the assassination of martin luther king, that is a cry out for justice. the way that doctor martin luther king lived his life was a legacy that has transformed the world, not just here in america but his example of fighting and praying in his peaceful acts of civil disobedience are equal opportunity and justice and for our society, he is a prey you compile on, many women and people of faith to join in on the march for justice. not only people here in america for decades to make transformational changes in our society, he is recognized that all over the world forre his stance and his demonstration how nonviolent demonstration, peaceful demonstration, peaceful act of civil disobedience can transform society, we are not perfect but we have a huge debt of gratitude, doctor martin luther king and his legacy to continue to strive for the more just society. again george floyd's death is a tragedy and demandsus justice, d not sure why he felt the need to improve the two, one thing that he said, he is beginning to bore himself, to h

we know the march on washington ended with martin luther king jr. giving that incredible speech "i have a dream." the same church that was burning last night, here is what they said, taking the full stance to support martin luther king. "this church building is open, as it has always been, so all who want to worship here, the ministry of this parish has extended to any who seek it. our fellowship with one another has no limitations whatsoever." that church supported the bold civil rights moment of the march on washington which began at the lincoln memorial. that does not honor the legacy of george floyd. it does not further the cause anarchists, advantage ofaking the peaceful protesters. reporter: is it possible d.c. will be placed under martial law ? act will civil rights this administration investigate either members of congress or political organizations for funding and people moving forward? pursuingk we are antifa as a domestic terrorist. what was your second one? martial law? i have not heard that yet. reporter: can you confirm a call between p

president, as doctor martin luther king and doctorn john king the former secretary of education and others have told us, we have to make sure this isst a moment we can act wh justice as it tells us. all of us, no matter where we are from, we are called to act with justice about us not fail to act with justice in this moment. let us embrace this moment, pass the justice and policing act or something close to that and bring the warm light of justice to the millions of americans especially black americans. and i will yield back the fourth. >> madam president, i hope today's events in the senate will not soon be forgotten by the american people. over the laston

we got here, my uncle martin luther king, jr.e come on different ships but we're all in the same boat now. but we have to learn as brothers and sisters to break the systemic evil. melissa: see, one thing i thought could possibly unify people around this particular incident is that there is no one saying it was okay. no matter what color you are or where you are, even, police officers, there is no one who is coming out saying, well, you know -- no. they're all condemning as vicious and evil what we saw. so why can't we rally around the idea that we all agree that was awful and can never happen again? >> we agree that it was evil. so now we must agree on how to deal with it. it is very disrespectful, george floyd is dead. he was unarmed, non-violent and he was basically choked to death by a policeman. so how do we deal with that? violently or non-violently? non-violence means nobody else gets killed. violence means people are her, killed, robbed and further disappointed. so obviously those who are still killing, and destroying are

our guest today is martin luther king iii, the son of martin luther king jr. he joins us from atlanta, georgia. thank you very much for being with us, mr. king. >> thank you. >> like your father, you are yourself a human rights activist. obviously your father had famously a a dream, but upon discovering the footage of george floyd under the knee of a police officer in minneapolis over two weeks ago, america actually woke up to a nightmare. hat was your reaction? my reaction when i first heard about the killing of george floyd, actually the murder, i should say, it was may 25, which happenened to be a holiday in the u.s. and my daughter's 12th birthday. the first thing that it evoked for me was wow, this sounds juss like ec gagarn in n new york,, who wawas held with a chokehold scenario and was killed by a police officer, police officers in new york city. so that was the first thing, and then the second emotion was anger and frustration and hohostility. whatat are we going to do so th this neverer, ever happens to another human being? it was several days later b

martin luther king and dr. john king, former secretary of education and others have told us, we have to make sure that this is a moment we can act with justice as the hymn tells us. all of us, no matter where we're from, no matter what party we're in. all of us are called to act with justice. so let us not fail to act with justice in this moral moment. let us embrace this moment, pass the justice and policing act or something very close to that, and bring the warm light of justice to millions

. >> this is not in the spirit of martin luther king, junior. this is chaos. jillian: our next guest is the niece of martin luther king and says her uncle's message is being taken out of context by those who believe violence is a solution. alveda king joins us live. i'm wo wondering what you think your uncle would say today. >> good morning, jillian, as we follow these situations we're also following and praying for the family of george floyd. i just heard our mayor, we just saw the mayor of atlanta on here in atlanta speaking out, asking people to stop. the president of the united states urging people to protest and to speak out peacefully. martin luther king, junior did say that the message of the voiceless is violence, i'm paraphrasing him. however, he was not condoning violence. he was just letting us know that those who in pain must be heard, must be considered, must be treated as human beings. rob: let's listen to that, you're talking about that right now. let's listen to your uncle. >> in the final analysis, a riot is the language of the unheard, justice

and martin luther king. coronavirus has demonstrated very clearly the injustice of how a pandemic hits. is disparity of deaths that so clear in the community of color. disparity -- among groups and the -- big impact on communs of color. requires that we do this testing. as mr. clyburn, our distinguished whip has said, we need mobile units to go out into communities so people will be tested and then traced and the rest. why should there be more deaths in the communities of color? because there hasn't been testing and tracing. and treatment. to prevent those deaths from happening. so it's really important for the senate to pass the heroes act. for what it does for our heroes who are risking their lives to save lives and now may lose their jobs because of the coronavirus. and the revenue lost to communities. -- communities, state and localities that are footing that bill. that's one part of it. but the second pillar is about testing, tracing, treating. it's evidence-based. it will provide us with the analysis o

you mentioned malcolm x and martin luther king and before malcolm x died he was reconciled with martin. the impatients in the streets is why we have policing act in congress last week. the streets have spoken to the people they send to congress and that is how democracy works. that's what we want to see. chris: but congresswoman, you say this is is how democracy works. the fact is that democrats in the senate blocked the republican bill and democrats passed a bill without any republican input, the result of it is it looks like both sides did the same thing and nothing is going to get passed. eleanor: well, i disagree. since the republicans have a bill, a policing bill in the congress -- in the senate, we passed a bill in the house. what that leads to is people looking at those bills and getting together. let them pass their bill just as we have passed our bill and then they will be a conference and we will decide -- >> chris: but it was the democrats in the senate who blocked the republicans from passing their bill so there is nothing to have a conference about. eleanor: they blocked i

martin luther king jr. back in 1958, when martin luther king jr. was stabbed in the chest by a crazed individual. there's your dad to the right. what did your dad, a man who served this country, went to medical school and became a respected doctor, say back then about how he was treated? >> well, i learned a little bit afterwards because that was a little before i was born, but you know, it was very clear that he was part of the surgical team that saved dr. martin luther king's life and the credit really went to the white doctors, even though they were part of the team, they weren't the lead surgeon and the newspapers back then didn't really want to acknowledge the black doctors that had really done a lot of the work that saved dr. king's life. they were part of the team but they weren't the only part of the team. that's really the message that was conveyed. that's a very powerful message as well, that we can't get full and fair consideration for the great things that we do. it's very challenging. liz: here we are, fast forward from 1958 to today,

and that's the the other lesson of martin luther king jr. and it has always been the case that we have demanded representation in the hallowed halls of congress wearing the robes of justice as well as sitting in the seats that make

martin luther king jr. and her mom is coretta king also the very funny wyatt cenac is on the show we'll close out the show with a performance from the roots first let's get to some news well, guys, a former member of donald trump's cabinet is speaking out against him that could be like one of 900 people but this happened to be his former defense secretary general james mattis in a statement, general mattis said, donald trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the american people. does not even pretend to try instead, he tries to divide us trump saw that and was like, why don't you be a man and tweet that to my face? trump denied he's trying to divide us. then he added more fencing between him and the protesters in case anyone forgot who general mattis is, here's a photo. he looks like every scooby doo villain who just had his mask yanked off several members of the military are criticizing trump. at the point the only military leaders who support him are these guys even his belove

or make an interest at martin luther king, jr. did.understand and comprehend and replace that violence. that stain of bloodshed that is spread across the land. with an effort to understand. compassion. and lv. and love. >> just a few hours ago the 45th u.s. president delivered his fist remarks on camera about the protest and racial tension tearing the country apart. >> as we speak i am dispatching thousands and thousands of hefly armed soldiers. military personnel. and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism. assaults, and the destruction of property. we are putting everybody on warning. >> joining us now. adviser to four u.s. presidents. it's good to see you. thank you for being with us. whether the words are said by a man who wants to be president or the man who is president. for bert or worse. they have a real impact. is it possible that what donald trump is trying to do is escalate the confrontation? he doesn't seem to be making attempt to deescalate. >> he is trying to escalate. for a purposeful reason. le

you mentioned malcolm x and martin luther king, before malcolm x died he would reconcile with martin king. the impatiens in the streets is why we have the lat legislationt was passed the policing act in congress last week. the streets have spoken to the people in congress. that is how democracy works. chris: congresswoman, you say this is how democracy works, the fact is that democrats in the senate blocked the republican bill because they said they were given no input in the house democrats passed a bill without any republican input, the resu result, it looks like both sides did the same thing and nothing is going to get past. eleanor: i disagree, since republicans have a bill in the congress and in the senate, we passed the bill in the house, what that leads to his people looking at those bills and getting together. let them pass the bills. just as we passed our bills, there will be a conference and then we will decide. chris: the democrats inut the senate who blocked the republican from passing their bill. there is nothing to have a conference about. eleanor: they blocked it becau

martin luther king. the burnings, looting, confrontations, things that sadly look exactly like they did some 50 years ago. the reality is this, in america we are given a constitutional right to express our feelings and our free speech and our free assembly, and those rights are important and should be valued and respected. but those rights to march, to demonstrate, as people are doing right outside this building at this very moment, cannot be taken to the point where they've reached an extreme and become destructive. speaking, assembling, exercising your constitutional right does not include looting. it doesn't include arson, vandalism or violence. in fact, those actions detract from the underlying message which calls for positive change in america. i am glad that leaders like john lewis, my dear friend, and former colleague from the house of representatives, has made that point. his voice on the subject is much more articulate and more convincing, but he's reminded us that if we are to move america to t

in many states we haven't seen this across the country since really 1968 after the death of martin luther king jr. >> the violent protesters really just distract from george floyd's death and the activities of a non- violent protesters who want to raise attention versus the violent protesters who are looking for anarchy in this country and we just have to make sure that line of separation is clear. in south carolina the governor mobilized the national guard as well so that we could be in a pit position of anticipation expectancy to resolve and respond from the issues we've seen around the country. we want to make sure we are able to tamp down that as quickly as possible. >> we have seen some really sad situations you would think. [inaudible] >> i spoke with the governor today and part of what i learned in the briefing is that folks that were the agitators were from outside the area, outside a state even, we are starting to see a trend where such the violent protesters aren't even from the community. i'd be surprised if they are as trying to cast a wide net with the goal, from my perspective, o

martin luther king. the system of justice has broken down in the city. they've run out of attorneys to even stand with the accused defendants before the court. we are preparing to empower you, even as law student, to walk across the street to the d.c. court and play that role. we need you. i did it. nervous as could be, uncertain of what i was actually doing, but realizing that the system of justice in this city had all, but broken down. i think we've learned the hard way that to maintain order in a democracy, you need a concensus, a concensus on what is the common good. and the belief that we must all stand together to make certain that it's protected, that there will always be its enemies and outliers. ultimately if we're to move together as a democratic nation, we have to understand and work together toward the common good, a common goal, and shouldn't the beginning of that common good or common goal be the end of racism in america? i've read so much history about the civil war, the role of another illinoisen, abraham lincoln in bringing that war to a

to get martin luther king. there is no doubt about it. i am presented that he presented the search while leaving most of that context out. for folks who haven't read his books, they don't know that the fbi makes a claim in 1963 to j. edgar hoover in a 70-page report saying martin king is not a communist. the communists don't have any influence on the civil rights movement. hoover was upset. he writes back that this is absurd and after martin king's march on washington, they push for further analysis. they told mr. hoover, you are right. we cannot count on -- this is key, and i wish he would have cited this -- we can no longer count on evidence that would stand up in a court of law or congressional committees in order to discredit martin luther king. we have to go beyond that sort of evidence. he doesn't mention that and i think it is important that the fbi is aiming to find anything they can to discredit him, including as i mentioned in my own work, funneling and having ministers launder information about marti

martin luther king jr. in your statement , you assert that our actions, even though peaceful, must be condemned because they precipitate violence. but is this a logical assertion? isn't this like condemning a robbed man because his possession of money precipitated the evil act of robbery? isn't this like condemning socrates because his unswerving commitment to truth and his philosophical inquiries precipitated the act by the misguided populace in which they made him drink hemlock? isn't this like condemning jesus because his unique god consciousness and never-ceasing devotion to god's will precipitated the evil act of crucifixion? we must come to see that, as the federal courts have consistently affirmed, it is wrong to urge an individual to cease his efforts to gain his basic constitutional rights because the quest may precipitate violence. society must protect the robbed and punish the robber. i had also hoped that the white moderate would reject the myth concerning time in relation to the struggle for fr

and martin luther king was shot to death. was 17 years old. and to have to grieve publicly like that after having martin luther king himself speaking about peace and love and nonviolence. and then the next year, his brother, my father, was killed, strangled and choked and beaten and thrown into a pool with water in his lungs. again on those same, his father and his mother. my grandmother was shot in the church in 1970 before i was 23. and so i want to speak up you will give me a moment to the family. it is very terrible to lose a family member to violence. to have to grieve publicly. but terrence, what his brother has done what the members of my family did come at granddaddy king said thank god for what wee left. they encouraged us not to riots, not to fight, but to love and forgive. that is very hard to do. when all of this injustice occurs. so we have to remember, i remembered george floyd's daughter thought that my daddy change the world. yes, he did, and we have to remember that. we must peacefully resolve these issues. we

today it is martin luther king. we did not know it was named after jefferson davis, right through the heart of the african-american community. in reality, i guess it made sense because african-americans did not come into the community until after the war because it was close to the other parts of town, where they were working. they could walk to work and walk back home. we are at franklin primary health care center. it is the namesake for dr. james franklin. dr. franklin actually grew up in tennessee and went to school at lincoln university. then he attended the university of michigan in 1909. he had to sleep in the boiler room. he took his trunk, which was his desk, and he slept on a cot. he finished second in his pedicle class. -- medical class. that was my maternal grandfather. he came back to alabama to practice medicine in evergreen. if i had known i would be doing this, i would have asked him a lot of questions. why evergreen? why not montgomery, tuskegee or birmingham? evergreen is a small community. that is

you are the niece of martin luther king. you know, dr. epartment was called in to stop a potential burning down of the police precinct there. that would have started possible fires up if down the city blocks there. your reaction to all of this. >> liz, i am so concerned for the mayor who seems to be suffering from a terrible affliction of nostalgia and denial. in other words, maybe when she was growing up a block party was fun, and maybe the free love movement was different then. but she is in the middle of a pandemic situation with covid-19 still existing and now the ayottes and finish now the riots. we have accurate reports from people who love in seattle who are concerned, and i'm surprised that the governor hasn't heard about this or he says not reliable information. and so block party. no. autonomous zones are the same as a sanctuary city where lawless people go and anarchists and everything. if there's no police there, then they have free rein to regroup and go back and do it again. so free love, what kind of free love? when the busi
